You were very helpful and professional …

You were very helpful and professional in helping us choose a property and with the assistance of your legal teams at Portishead and Westbury on Trym a long but ultimately successful conveyancing process. We were kept informed of progress throughout.

Flat sale

We had a complex flat sale and the pragmatic, persistent approach from the team was excellent. Special thanks to Mel and Kirstie for their diligent work.

I have been very impressed with how… you managed our sale, and me!

I have been very impressed with how Ocean have handled our house sale. They were always responsive and proactive, and i felt they were genuinely invested in the process. Katie Hedges in particular deserves calling out as she has been utterly exemplary in how she has helped me. She was on the journey with us, and went out of her way to help in what was at times a stressful process. She provided the necessary bridge between ourselves and the purchaser and did it as well as anyone could have wanted. Importantly, she put the right amount of pressure to influence things even during times when events were outside of our control. Thank you so much!

Ocean - a sea of calm

Ocean estate agents provided a sea of calm at what is obviously a very stressful time in ones life. They were efficient and steered me through the process with patience and understanding. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. They appeared to be far more interested than some other agents. I would recommend them to anyone.

Thank you for the brilliant review, we are glad you were happy with the service. We will make sure we pass on your comments to the team as they are always keen to learn what they are doing well and of course if there are any areas they could improve but it looks like in this instance, they got things just right.

Had a great experience with Oceans…

Had a great experience with Oceans Estate Agents especially they are local of Bradley Stoke, Bristol. They have always been very thorough, approachable and professional and always provided very helpful guidance and advice especially I was a first time buyer and almost knew nothing about the whole process. Highly recommended.

Appreciation to Phaedra King and Ocean

Got an amazing service from Phaedra King working at Ocean. She was able to help me secure a booking to view a property in a short time frame and gave me all necessary advise and support to move into the property all in just over 2 weeks. Very thankful for her assistance along with her team.

Everything made simple

The Ocean team did a fantastic job of keeping me in the loop and supported during a buyout process. Dimitri and Tracey in particular were a great help and are a credit to their team. I've had such a good experience with Ocean that I'd use them again in future, and recommend them to others.

Brilliant Services all round!

Brilliant Services, highly recommended indeed! Myself and my partner came across Ocean Lettings in December when we were looking for a place to call home. The day they started advertising we enquired about the property and by the close of play that evening we had already been accepted. The application process was extremely quick but everything was explained to ourselves in great detail at every little stage.We have been moved in now for a couple of months and absolutely love the property and have a great relationship with our Landlord.We cannot fault Ocean Lettings at all, we dealt mainly with a lovely young lady called Ola, she met us at the property and showed us around answering all questions we had and provided us with reassurance every step of the way! Would 100% recommend this Estate Agent to any friends or family who are on the move.

Helpful and professional advice and service

Neil and Tracey were really helpful in guiding me through an unfamiliar area and making sure all the deadlines were hit and in liaising with the bank’s solicitor to help smooth the process even more.

Craig has been very good support

Craig has been very good supporting my move and keeping me informed despite a rough start. The chain fell through bit was quickly picked up and although taken some time, has finally been completed to exchange of contracts today.

Estate agents & solicitors don’t always…

Estate agents & solicitors don’t always get the best reputation and so I was so glad that I chose Ocean (Downend). Weekly updates from their move managers were really useful & reassuring. A great way to keep clients informed, manage expectations & mitigate the number of chasers they receive no doubt, allowing them to get on with the job in hand. Responses to emails were generally answered within a couple of hours and cover was always in place when people were out of the office. Never had an issue with anyone else picking up a query and responding to me in a timely manner. I know of other people moving who have experienced a nightmare!Now, if only someone could pack for me?? 🤣

Not like other Estate Agencies.

I moved into a flat in Southville with Ocean in 2019, moving in was no hassle, they didn't try and stick us with any sneaky fee's and they processed our application super fast.My main point of praise however is how they supported us during the pandemic. They were super helpful, understanding and sympathetic with how my landlord and I were struggling, and even helped us speed up the process when we decided to move out to save money.If you can use Ocean when moving in Bristol, you absolutely should.

A straightforward exchange for first time buyers

Our journey with Ocean Downend started with Simon Lack who was our mortgage advisor. He has always been professional, insightful, knowledgeable and helpful - he accommodated for our needs and meeting times. We were first time buyers and Ocean Downend (seller) and Bradley Stoke (ours) were excellent at keeping up in the loop, and answering most of our emails. We were told we would have the keys by a certain time in the afternoon and by 10am, I was told the keys were ready to be collected. On arrival we were gifted with a lovely bottle of wine. I would highly recommend using Ocean Downend, Bradley Stoke and Simon Lack.

Lily at Ocean has made the whole process as smooth and as stress free as I think the process of letting can be. With regular communication and updates, we have felt in control and up to date. Made the whole process pain free!

Great team work .. thankyou

All the team were excellent . Evie coordinated everything so efficiently. One thing I noticed was that everyone had a working knowledge of all the Lettings so if the person I wanted to speak to was busy the others were in a position to give helpful advice.

Would recommend!

This is the third time we have obtained a mortgage through the Ocean Finance team. We have always found them to be responsive, knowledgeable & helpful - they sorted our mortgage quickly and chased up the lender on our behalf. Would recommend and will continue to utilise the service.

Agent replied · 23 August 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We are disappointed to hear that you were not satisfied due to the lack of verbal communication during your purchase. Upon reviewing our records, we noted numerous email correspondences between you and our team throughout the transaction, along with your regularly updated personal case portal available for 24/7 review. However, we understand that you may not have always been able to speak with the conveyancer over the phone. Due to the high volume of calls we receive daily, we cannot always guarantee immediate access to the person handling your matter unless a specific time is arranged. Nevertheless, our team is always available to take calls and assist where possible.We did however exchange contracts within 10 weeks from receiving the contract pack, well within the average time to exchange contracts in the UK 2024. This time frame included some delays caused by issues with a third-party management company, which were beyond our control.We would be happy to discuss any specifics regarding your experience further. Please let us know if you would like to arrange a time for a call.Regards, Ocean

Excellent Service!

Excellent Service!I cannot thank The Ocean Lettings and Management in Portishead enough for their help and professionalism throughout this process, and I cannot express how much I can recommend them.Their representative Charlie T Bartlett, Lettings Negotiator provided excellent communication, feedback, and support from start to finish. The procedure and efficiency are flawless, and I cannot fault any part of my experience. Looking for a new property is always a stressful time and I have been under extra time deadlines due to a change in my circumstances. I have certainly landed on my feet to find such a gorgeous and well-presented property which is also backed by professional and efficient individuals who have made the process as easy as you can imagine.Thank you so much!Joanna
